Little Jackie
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I take it in stride, one day at a time If I ask no questions I'll hear no lies How come blessings only come in disguise' Try that on for size as I vocalize ain't nothing gonna get in between me and my flow Ain't nothing gonna come between me and my afro My man just left me, what do ya know' Easy come, easy go He came out of the blue and went right back into it Had to forfeit 'cause he couldn't get with it Called it quits and when he split He said he didn't have time for my juvenile bullshit I've had a lot of failed relationships I don't get involved because I'm not equipped I believe that the world should revolve around me! I don't see the point of a partnership It won't be long until they start to trip Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me! there's only one me in the galaxy I am an endangered species This kind of flower don't grow on Earth Just lettin' you know for what it's worth This kind of knowledge can cause a depression So I bide my time with philosophical questions Not for nothing, but what came first' The chicken nugget or the Egg McMuffin' I got talent and I got tits I know I'll find another guy who wants to get with it I'm not convinced that I'm a big fat whore One man's pleasure is another man's chore I've had a lot of failed relationships I don't get involved because I'm not equipped I believe that the world should revolve around me! I don't see the point of a partnership It won't be long until they start to trip Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me! I know I rock and what I got is hot And you know I got a lot 'Cause all that trippin' you gotta stop Before you know it your ass'll be dropped I ain't concerned with my biological clock Since I never grow old, my money's always in stocks Keep screwing that bitch from down the block I don't need you around, I know I rock! I've had a lot of failed relationships I don't get involved because I'm not equipped I believe that the world should revolve around me! I don't see the point of a partnership It won't be long until they start to trip Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me! I've had a lot of failed relationships I don't get involved because I'm not equipped I believe that the world should revolve around me! I don't see the point of a partnership It won't be long until they start to trip Yes siree, the whole world should revolve around me!
